История 1
I fell madly in love with Anton from the moment I met him. It was
certainly love at first sight. I knew at once that he was the love of
my life but at first I was not sure if my love was returned or not.
Within a few days, however, he had told me that he was
desperately in love with me too. A couple of weeks later, we
realized that we wanted to make a commitment to each other
and, when Anton asked me to marry him, I immediately accepted
his proposal. I’m sure we will always love each other
unconditionally. Neither of us would ever consider having an
affair with someone else.

When you move to a new city, it can be hard to make friends.
You’ll probably have a number of casual acquaintances. Over
time, some of these may become good friends or close friends.
Do you believe in love at first sight? That’s when two people
meet each other and immediately fall in love – perhaps because
they have strong chemistry. Some people believe that their
significant other is their soul mate – this is a poetic expression
that means that two people are destined to be together.

It’s possible for one person to have feelings for
another person – this expression is an indirect way to
describe romantic feelings – but if the other person
doesn’t feel the same way, then the feeling is not
mutual. The other person might say “he’s/she’s just
not my type” – meaning that they are interested in
people of a different type of personality/appearance.
Ah, there’s nothing sadder than unrequited love!
(Love that is not returned)

Some people marry their childhood sweetheart or high
school/college sweetheart – this expression refers to a
boyfriend or girlfriend from your childhood, teenage, or college
years. Other couples are introduced by a mutual friend – one
friend that the two people have in common. When the couple
is ready to make a commitment, the man proposes to the
woman– he asks her to marry him. If the marriage is good,
then we say the couple is happily married.
Unfortunately, not all love stories have a happy ending.
Sometimes a husband or wife has an affair – they have sex
with a different person. We can also say that they are cheating
on their husband/wife.
